After a bit of back and forth (and a little wangling from Judith), Chase is back in the hospital for his final chemo. Yeah!

His numbers didn't bounce back as quickly as last time, which I guess is understandable, but still... The first doctor who reviewed his labs tried to send him home, but Judith got a copy of the report, noticed it was just slightly out of range, and sweet talked Dr. Gold into letting Chase stay and start chemo. Heck, they'd already started the fluids - hate to waste a needle stick!

Chase is such an old hat at this now he wheeled his IV pole down to admitting and got himself registered while Judith traipsed back and forth to the car a couple times to unload all their stuff. He's back on the 5th floor of the Children's hospital again, so he'll get to bug all his favorite nurses one last time.

I last talked to Judith at 7PM and they still hadn't actually started the chemo, but I trust by now the day's dose is done. He'll be in tomorrow for sure and he may be in a third night, depending. Last time he got out after two, though, so we'll see. I know Chase (along with everyone else) is ready to get this DONE!
